Summary
My Hero Ultra Rumbleis finally here, and while it includes 18 fan-favorite characters to choose from, there are definitely still a few Heroes that longtime fans of the series would no doubt love to see make an appearance. Due to the massive success and popularity,the battle royalehas received upon its release, there’s no doubt that developers BNE Entertainment will be keeping a close eye on fan requests to see who they should add toMy Hero Ultra Rumblein future updates to expand the roster a little bit and introduce more playstyles.
Luckily, the universe ofMy Hero Academiaispacked full of colorful and quirky charactersthat could be incredibly fun to play as, especially when it comes to the Heroes. Since All Might is already in the game, this also means that Pro Heroes aren’t restricted from jumping into the action alongside the students which opens the floodgates to a whole range of unique characters that would be so much fun to control. These are the Heroes who we would love to see make an appearance inMy Hero Ultra Rumbleat some point in the future.
7Kyoka Jiro
Considering thatmost members of Class 1-Aare already in the game, it’s surprising thatKyoka Jirowasn’t also included as a starter, especially since her unique Quirk could be used in so many interesting ways. Jiro’s Earphone Jack Quirk allows her to channel her heartbeat through her headphones to create a vibration that can stun an enemy, something which would make her a great Support character who could freeze enemies in place to be finished off by the rest of her team in the game.
Her Quirk also allows her to hear the smallest noises from a fair distance away, which could potentially be used as a way to mark enemies from afar or maybe even see them through walls when she stands still. On top of all this, Jiro also has a very punk-rock kind of fashion sense that the developers could do a lot with when it comes to alternate costumes.
6Shihai Kuroiro
Shihai Kuroiro isa member of Class 1-Bwho might not have gotten a lot of screen time in the anime, but whose Quirk and special abilities could easily slot him into the Rapid class of characters who are able to move at lightning speeds across the map. His quirk allows Kuroiro to merge with darkness which in turnenhances his speed, allowing him to zip around an entire area in mere seconds.
This could be a little tricky to actually incorporate in-game, but it could also make him a very strategic character who performs extremely well in closed-off buildings and shady areas where he can set up free kills for his team. Class 1-B is unfortunately often overshadowed in the series, but since Shiozaki has already proved to be a really popular character in the game, it definitely wouldn’t hurt to add a few more characters from this group as playable characters.
5Nemuri Kayama
Pro Hero Nemuri Kayama’s Quirk is very simple butcould be absolutely devastatingin a match ofMy Hero Ultra Rumble. The way it works is she can release an aroma from her body which immediately puts anyone near her to sleep, and while this usually works better on men than women in the series, this could be balanced out in the game to create a fantastic Technical or Support ability.
She could also use her iconic Feather Fan and Whip of Love as crowd control weapons inthe same vein as Momowho is able to keep enemies away from her team thanks to her massive attacks and abilities. Kayama also has a very striking and vibrant design which the developers could definitely tinker with to create a few new color variations or entirely new outfits that we haven’t seen before in the series.
4Inasa Yoarashi
Since Yoarashi is actually a member of Shiketsu High School, he doesn’t appear until much later in the series, but he certainly makes quite the impact once he’s introduced due tohow immensely powerful he is. Yoarashi is a brash, confident, and very brave young man which already sets up a lot of potential for his voice lines and unlockable emotes, and his Quirk would also make him a fun character who’s guaranteed to strike fear into the eyes of his enemies.
Yoarashi can create a giant whirlwind that swoops up any projectiles in the area but can also simply toss villains far away from any civilians. There are so many unique ways this could be implemented in-game, maybe it could be used to grab enemies or even allies to toss them away from the fight, or it could even collectQuirk Cards and Ailmentsto gather for his team. He could therefore fit into either the Assault or Support class, or even a Strike character if the developers wanted to make him a real powerhouse.
3Snipe
While there are a handful of characters inMy Hero Ultra Rumblewho are capable of throwing out ranged projectiles, there’s none who fit thetypical “marksman” archetypewho excels at picking off enemies from afar with deadly precision. This is an area thatPro Hero Snipecould definitely fill, being a sniper whose Quirk allows him to lock onto targets from 600 meters away and whose bullets will always chase after the target.
He’s also been shown to carry smoke grenades which could come in handy for escaping any Assault or Strike enemies who get close, and he could even be given a snappy short-ranged weapon to defend himself when needed. Fans have been clamoring for Snipe to get more screen time ever since he first showed up during the U.S.J Incident, and this would be a great way to show off the character and maybe even flesh him out a little bit in the process.
2Eraser Head
The effortlessly cool and laid-back Pro Hero known as Eraser Head is admittedly extremely strong andpotentially even overpowereddue to his abilities, but he could be toned down just a tad to make him a valuable asset to any team in the game. Eraser Head can essentially nullify an enemy Quirk for a short period of time just by looking at the user, something that could potentially shut down enemies and inflict a unique Silence status effect on them inMy Hero Ultra Rumble.
It’s specifically mentioned in the anime that this ability is not used offensively, and is more of a pacifier that can prevent any villains from causing chaos, so it would probably make more sense for him to be a Technical or Support Hero. Eraser Head also has an incredibly unique fighting style where he uses his Binding Cloth to trap enemies in a tight hold, which again would be great for stopping explosive characters likeBakugo or Todorokiin their tracks.
1Endeavor
If All Might wasn’t already in the game, it would have seemed pretty ridiculous to put Endeavor, one of the strongest Heroes in the world ofMy Hero Academia, into the game considering that he would be literally going up against students. Luckily though, All Might’s inclusion means thatthe No.2 Pro Herohas every chance of joining the action, and there’s no doubt that his wide variety of special moves would make him an absolute blast to play as.
Endeavor uses his fiery Quirk, Hellflame, in a variety of unique ways to tackle anyone who stands in his way. His signature move, the Flashfire Fist, sees Endeavor maximize his temperature to unleash a devastating attack that could easily dish out a tremendous amount of damage on enemy teams. There’s also Hell Spider, an ability that allows Endeavor to fire small bursts of fire from his fingertips which could be used as a short-ranged projectile. And of course, we can’t forget aboutEndevaor’s most powerful move, Prominence Burn, where he fires a gigantic beam of fire towards an enemy which is quite hard to control, but absolutely devastating if it manages to land. Having Endeavor in the game would be a dream come true for many fans, especially since it would also mean that he could fight side by side with his distant son Todoroki.
